Molecular cloning, characterization, and expression of Rab5B, Rab6A, and Rab7 from Litopenaeus vannamei (Penaeidae).
The Rab protein family belongs to a superfamily of ras-like GTP-binding proteins. Rab proteins regulate many steps of membrane trafficking. In this study, three Rab family members, Rab5B, Rab6A, and Rab7, designated LvRab5B, LvRab6A, and LvRab7, were cloned from Litopenaeus vannamei. The full-length cDNA sequences of LvRab5B, LvRab6A, and LvRab7 were 1383, 873, and 767 nucleotides in length and...
متن کاملCloning, characterization, and expression of the macrophage migration inhibitory factor gene from the Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (Penaeidae).
The macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is an important proinflammatory cytokine that mediates both innate and adaptive immune responses. In this study, we identified a homolog of MIF in the Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. The MIF cDNA contained a 363-bp open reading frame encoding a 120-amino acid protein with a calculated molecular mass of 13.442 kDa and a theoretical isoe...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of infectious Vibrio sinaloensis strains from the Pacific shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei (Decapoda: Penaeidae).
Infectious diseases especially those caused by bacterial and viral pathogens are serious loss factors in shrimp farming. In this study, bacteria were isolated from the gut and hepatopancreas of stressed shrimps obtained from a commercial farm. The isolates were screened on Thiosulfate citrate bile salt sucrose (TCBS) agar plates for the selection of Vibrio species. Presumptive vibrios were char...
متن کاملCloning and molecular modeling of Litopenaeus vannamei (Penaeidae) C-type lectin homologs with mutated mannose binding domain-2.
C-type lectins are animal proteins that contain at least one carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) capable of mediating sugar and calcium binding. Carbohydrate recognition is directly required for some biological functions, including the innate immune response. We cloned two novel C-type lectin (CTL) precursors from the commercial marine shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. The cloned cDNAs encompass O...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and expression of a putative crustacean hyperglycemic hormone of Litopenaeus vannamei in Pichia pastoris
Crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH) is the most abundant and best studied member of the CHH/MIH/GIH neuropeptide hormone family. CHH plays a major role in controlling glucose levels in the hemolymph, and it also has significance in regulating molting, reproduction, and osmoregulation. In contrast, molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH) is responsible for maintaining animals in an intermolt stage. In ...
